Is Ritalin more "safer" than adderall? | ADHD Information

Share

Hi,

I've been on 30 mg of Adderall xr for about 3 weeks now and do not like how it makes me feel as opposed to ritalin.  I have dry mouth, a little paranoia, and some sleep disturbances.  While taking 10 mg of ritalin 3x a day for a month, I felt fine, maybe a LITTLE dry mouth and that's it!  I slept like a baby too.  Plus, it seems like I was more focused taking ritalin.  Well, I'm a little off the subject here...I was thinking about switching back to ritalin on wednesday, and was just curious if it's considered or if there's any emperical evidence related to the difference of adderall and ritalin's safety issues.  THank you.
